Description

"iPad and iPhone App Development" is the official companion text for the popular iTunes U series from Stanford University taught by Paul Hegarty in Fall 2011.

The examples in this book have been completely updated so you can follow along with the latest release of Xcode and take advantage of the latest features of Objective-C.

Experienced programmers will learn to write applications for the iPad and iPhone. The book is full of code examples and animated walkthroughs.

You can follow the description in the book to build the sample applications for iOS 6 or you can still target iOS 5 as in the video series.

The book begins with introductions to Objective-C, the Xcode IDE, the Cocoa frameworks, and the Model View Controller pattern. The middle portion of the book focuses on views and view controllers that you will use in almost every iOS app. The book ends with special topics such as Blocks, Location and Maps, Core Data, and iCloud.

What's New in Version 1.2

There is a new edition of this book named "Developing iOS 7 Apps for iPad and iPhone." This book has been updated to point to the new edition.

Beware, if you download this book, it will give you a permanent update flag in iBooks. For someone claiming to know how iOS works, they don't show it
